[Arcanine drops his log at James' feet and barks, wagging again. Pets! Pets and log-toss, come on, James!!]
[Blue raises an eyebrow at the description, but indeed, once James sends his Pokémon out, they're... two very oceanic-looking Pokémon. Was this guy a Water-type specialist like Archie? Although he had a Growlithe, he said...] "Two tentacled pals" and no Tentacool, huh?
I've never seen either of these Pokémon... [He muses, walking closer to join James, his Pokémon and Arcanine. He kneels down, pulling his Pokédex out to scan them.] What region are you from?
[There's a noticeable freeze from Blue, pausing to glance back up at the man. Another Kantonian...? The only one he'd met here, amongst all the lame Hoennians and Alolans. Well, it was better than nothing, he decided with a cynical lidding of his eyes, watching as Mareanie devoured his face.]
[Ignoring James' suffering for a moment, he instead kneels down to grin at Inkay, flipping his Pokédex open.] Aren't you different? The Kalos region, huh... Gramps has a research fellow there...
[While Blue starts recording dex data, Arcanine joins his trainer, giving the smaller Pokémon a friendly sniff, although he seems unsure of all the commotion coming from the man stumbling about.] Your trainer's not in trouble, is he? I smell poison from over there....

[He says and he smiles at Arcanine.]
But these two cuties are from distant, daring lands!
Inkay is from Kalos and Mareanie is from Alola.
[Inkay waves and Mareanie turns to look up at James.]
Oh, no, d-
[She leaps up enthusiastically and wraps her tentacles around her Trainer's head. James staggers about in an attempt to pull her loose.
Inkay, meanwhile, doesn't seem alarmed by any of this. This happens all the time.]
